<p>[QUOTE="evelyb30, post: 231490, member: 36"]That looks like Gilson "lapis" glass from here, but you're on the spot. That mark however is Iraqi; their jewelry pops up here occasionally. Some of it came back with troops, and odds are that one did too. For fifty cents I'd have snagged it without a backward glance and all due speed. The only question is how a Western European clasp landed on a Middle Eastern piece.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
